If you find our monthly book sales a little inconvenient or overwhelming, you can always shop at our Friends of the Library Bookstore at Central Park Library! It's open whenever the library is (pending volunteer availability), has thousands of books of all kinds for sale, and is often less crowded than our bigger monthly sales.

We restock books as fast as they sell, so there's always something new-to-you to see. Stop in the next time you're in the library!

Sometimes, you want to support your favorite nonprofits in the best way possible for you. And sometimes, that's donating stock instead of donating cash. If you want to make a stock gift to The Santa Clara City Library Foundation and Friends, we can accept that! Visit our website to get the details you'll need to make that happen, and consult your financial advisor to see if this way of donating is best for you.

The Santa Clara City Library Foundation and Friends highlights the events that we sponsor, but there is so much more happening at the Santa Clara City Library!

It's such a great way to get to know the place you live and work and to get more involved in your community!

A huge thank you to all our volunteers! We, and the Santa Clara City Library, held a volunteer appreciation event over the weekend for all the volunteers who make the Santa Clara City Library such a warm and welcoming place for all. We couldn't do this without you!

If you're 73 or older, you probably have to take a required minimum distribution from your IRA. If you do, you can donate that money directly to the Santa Clara City Library Foundation and Friends! This can be better for your tax situation - talk to your financial planner to see if this is right for you.
